Looks like Harry boy will get a pre-Xmas return to the Prem.

Just in time for the january transfer window ....

Hughes has been around management for a few years now & to my mind he has not constructed very memorable teams; or players have been developed by him. His face and profile have got him the jobs but he hasn't lived up to the expectations. He hasn't "done" his apprenticeship under great managers as, for example, Clarke at WBA did.
Harry would spend, spend, spend there!

Harry is a good manager but never given a chance at a club with the financial clout and willing to spend it!

Although for a supposedly rich club QPR don't seem to be making any big name signings! seems a bit like Villa with a rich owner but wont just throw it around

Di Matteo maybe? Timing seems strange.

Harry will get the gig and steer Rangers to safety without any doubt imo.

For a club of QPR's size, the likes of Julio Cesar and Esteban Granero are huge signings. Despite footballers still being tagged as money grabbing mercenaries, the vast majority will still think about their respective careers when making a decision and until they show signs of looking like qualifying for European competition, QPR is far from an attractive proposition for players of an elite calibre.

Not sure about that. They have 4 points from 12 games. Yes he did a similar rescue job for Spurs but Spurs had Berbatov, Keane and Defoe up front, QPR have Cisse and Zamora.

Zamora is out for 3 mths minimum so not a lot up front then!

Harry is the 6th highest spending manager at a Premiership club with Tottenham, he spent 203m during his time there. I'd say he was given a chance to use financial clout there.

It was never Sparky's fault though, was it? Always the ref's.

QPR out of the frying pan and into the fire :hilarious:
